</p>
<h2>Syntax</h2><p><tt>Y = A/B</tt></p>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
<tt>A/B</tt> computes matrix right divide. It is implemented for
quaternion arrays only for the case where <tt>B</tt> is a scalar
(that is a single quaternion or numeric value). In this case, the
result is exactly the same as that given by the elementwise right
divide (<tt>./</tt>). The reason for implementing this
function is that some MATLAB&reg; code uses <tt>/</tt> when <tt>./</tt>
should have been used. The existence of this function in the 
toolbox makes it possible for MATLAB&reg; functions to work on quaternion
arrays if all other necessary functions are overloaded. An example is the MATLAB&reg;
<tt>cov</tt> function.
